Enroll: Hardware Token (DUO)
This is for first time device enrollment or if you are adding a token as an additional device.
The DUO hardware tokens will generate a passcode that will allow you to access Gold password systems. This device can be used from anywhere in the world and does not require Wifi or Cell service. These tokens are pre programmed for UCSC and need to be associated with the CruzID account that will use it.
Hardware tokens can be purchased at the Baytree bookstore.
Once you have a UCSC pre-programmed DUO Hardware token from the Bookstore, please go to ITS SlugHub and select the “Get Help” button to open a ticket so that ITS can associate the CruzID to the UCSC Hardware token. Please include a picture of the entire device number or type the complete number as well as the CruzID account it will be associated with. For account verification please be prepared to provide your full name, CruzID, an alternate email address, as well as your Student ID or Employee ID number. When ITS has associated the hardware token to the requested CruzID the hardware token will show up as a selection from the “other options” list.
Hardware tokens have an expected minimum battery lifetime of 2 years.
Enroll: Backup Device
It is strongly recommended that you add an additional device to serve as a backup. The device can be another smartphone, landline, tablet, cell phone or even a trusted family/friend's phone number.
Not enrolling a backup device puts you at a high risk of losing access to Gold systems if your primary device is not available.
Instructions for enrolling a backup device can be found at the Add or Manage Devices page.

YubiKey Configuration Guide
Disclaimer
YubiKeys are not supported by UCSC. This guide is intended to be completely self-service, and provide an opportunity to use your YubiKey with MFA.
If you already own a YubiKey for authentication into online services and it is not configured properly, you can lock yourself out of your other accounts. It is recommended that you buy a YubiKey strictly for use with MFA at UCSC.
Note: Duo does not work with FireFox at this time. If you decide to use a YubiKey for MFA at UCSC, here are the instructions.
This guide will work with any Yubico One-Time Passcode (OTP) enabled YubiKey. If you are not sure if your YubiKey is Yubico OTP enabled check the products section on the Yubico website. Please note that the $20 security key from Yubico will not work with this guide.
- You will need to download the YubiKey Personalization Tool.
- Open the tool and insert your YubiKey.
Most YubiKeys come with two configuration slots. The first is already configured for you when you buy the key. We will be configuring the second blank slot.
If you have a nano-sized YubiKey, you will also want to prevent the accidental triggering of the first slot. To do this go to the extended settings to disable fast triggering which prevents the accidental triggering of the first slot.
Once you’ve verified that your YubiKey has two slots, is updatable, and supports Yubico OTP you are ready to start the configuration!
- Select Yubico OTP mode in the about page. Select the quick option.
- Select configuration slot 2. Then click regenerate. Uncheck Hide values.
You will need the Serial Number (in decimal format), Private Identity(In Hex), and Secret Key(In Hex) to add the YubiKey to your Duo account. There is no way to read your existing Public Identity, Private Identity, and Secret Key off the token once it has been written. So write them down! You will need them if you use this YubiKey with other services in the future.
Double check your work. There is no going back after this step.
- Click write configuration.
Your YubiKey is now configured! Your next step is to provide the Serial number, private identity and secret key to the Help Desk team. Please provide these in the following comma separated format.
{Serial in Decimal}, {Private Identity}, {Secret Key}
01231337, 0c 87 99 55 78 ee, a4 d0 93 a9 bd 09 e1 24 e9 17 b6 72 03 56 a1 3b
- Please go to ITS SlugHub and select the “Get Help” button to open a ticket.
- Fill out the ticket with the following information in the Description field:
- Add YubiKey to DUO
- Ask the Support Center to secure the ticket and assign it to the appropriate technician to add the YubiKey. Do this before posting the YubiKey serial, private identity and secret key into the ticket!
- Click submit.
- A technician will secure the ticket so that only you and the tech will be able to see the following credentials. Please provide these in the following comma separated format.
{Serial in Decimal}, {Private Identity}, {Secret Key}
01231337, 0c 87 99 55 78 ee, a4 d0 93 a9 bd 09 e1 24 e9 17 b6 72 03 56 a1 3b
- Once the YubiKey has been added, go to any CruzID Gold site to test the key. Select any device from the dropdown and select the Passcode option
- Insert the YubiKey into your computer. Depending on which slot was programmed, press and/or hold the button on the YubiKey to generate a passcode. The first slot is used to generate the passcode when the YubiKey button is touched for between 0.3 and 1.5 seconds and released. The second slot is used if the button is touched between 2 and 5 seconds.
